Woot woot!
So I know, I've already gloated about being an 8, but I'm not off the train yet. I bought my first pair of size 8 bottoms today... a pair of slim jeans from the Gap. Hot hot hot! I can't even believe they zip up.
Just last august I remember trying on 16s, the Gap's biggest size, and they wouldn't zip up and what a terrible awful feeling it was.
Eight, in my mind then, was an impossibility.
I love proving myself wrong!!!!
More gloating because I've realized I'm between a medium and a small in tops. I always thought MEDIUM was a dream I'd probably never achieve, but "small"? not even a glimmer of a hope.
I want to cry I'm so proud of myself!

Congrats on the size 8. I practically went from size 16 to 12. 14 was in there like a blur. I sure hope to be a 10, which is what I was most of my pre-married, pre-children life. Size 8 is my DREAM.

hehe - if you're anything like me, you'd grab other 8's to make sure there wasn't a manufacturing default.
Congrats nicole - can't wait to see a pic!

That is so great! I went shopping the other day and a size 16 was too big. WAY too big! I thought that was an accomplishment seeing that I was barely in 18's not that long ago. I'm in some 14's now, and it's a great feeling. Like you I can't even begin to see myself in an 8, but you've given me hope.

I had to zip, unzip and rezip them a few times before I actually believed they fit. Like it might have been a fluke the first time.
